BS One-day Workshop
“The body is the message of the universe”
Sunday 22nd February 2026
10am – 4pm (two keiko, 10-12.30, 2-4pm)
Eastington Community centre, Snakey Lane, Eastington, GL10 3AQ
A
workshop for new practitioners to explore Shintaido with more experienced people, and for more experienced practitioners to remind themselves of why we practise Shintaido at all.
Senior Instructor Peter Furtado, who is leading the workshop, says, “For more than 40 years – ever since I first did keiko – I have puzzled over Aoki-sensei’s slogan ‘The body is the message of the universe’. This workshop will explore what it might mean for us today, and how Shintaido can change our lives.”
We’re based in the beautiful and sunny hall in Eastington, close to the M5 in Gloucestershire. GL10 3AQ.
Bring lunch to share – and come prepared for some of the keiko being outside if it’s a beautiful spring day. (Spare trainers and socks, as well as coat and hat!)
